Mumbai Indians v Chennai Super Kings - IPL Final

Presenters: Matt Smith and Mandira Bedi
Pundits: Dimitri Mascarenhas and Simon Hughes

Commentary from IPL World Feed team, as per semi-finals

A little disappointing from ITV in the knockout stages in my opinion, after doing so well previously. The consistency of early in the tournament lost with four different presenters/presenting combinations for four games, albeit affected by the volcanic ash cloud and Matt having to step in and do football on Wednesday at the last moment. Also, I would not have gone with Mascarenhas for the final and instead used Graeme Hick or Ronnie Irani who have been more regular pundits. Finally, I felt it was a bad decision to leave before the trophy presentation - surely the rugby highlights could have waited another half hour. However, the coverage has been excellent overall.

IRRC: (Main commentary team)

Bradford v Crusaders - Rod Studd and Brian Carney

Hull v Quins - Ben Proe and Paul Cullen

Warrington v Salford - Bill Arthur and Phil Clarke

Leeds v Wakefield - Eddie Hemmings and Mike Stephenson

Terry O'Conner was on the first game, lots of rolling pundits

Eddie the best, Bill Arthur quite good, Ben Proe is poor and Rod Studd (only done 2 live games before) is far better than Proe

Army V Navy (Babock Trophy RU)

Johnnie Hamond and Tony Diprose did it for Sky Sports. Was it a Red Button option?

Johnnie didn't get off to the best of starts by calling the game the 2000th Babcock Trophy!

Nottinghamshire Outlaws v Kent Spitfires - Clydesdale Bank 40 Group C (Saturday 8th May)

Presenter: Charles Colvile

As I was out I did not see this game once it got started after a lengthy rain delay as coverage was on the red button only, which cannot currently be recorded. During the brief bit of coverage that was on Sky Sports 2 before the World Twenty20 games started Paul Allott did a weather report and it was mentioned during the Northants v Derbyshire coverage that Jeremy Coney would be at Trent Bridge. I am not sure who the final commentator was and indeed whether they commentated as only 6 overs were bowled.
